Anyway, with all this pressure upon their shoulders they’re going to need to relax aren’t they?  Of course they are, and they are also going to want to live as comfortably as possible in their circumstances, so they need a good tolerant credit card.  Is there such a thing out there?

If you look at my previous post about college credit cards then you’ll get a basic idea about what a student card should be offering and what to look for.  We think that the following card ticks most of the boxes, but see what you think.  The following credit card has been chosen because we think that it’s likley that a student will be able to get one when they apply:

Natwest Student Card

• no offers on balance transfers
• no offers on purchases
• 18.9% APR
• Discounts on wine and travel

This isn’t a bad credit card considering that there doesn’t seem to be a student credit card out there that will give you 0% on purchases for 3 months at the moment; it’s not surprising though is it?  I wouldn’t want a student to get that far into debt before i scared them with the interest added.
